#1 Home Away From Home + Minutes from the Action- Room for everyone!
Looking for a stay that’s way cooler than a hotel? Welcome to your private 1,000 sq. ft. basement apartment, newly remodeled, full of charm, and set in one of Oxford’s most loved neighborhoods.
Your New Backyard BFFs Yes, that’s a deer. And another. And probably eight more. You can see 10+ deer a day (babies included!) in our tree-lined, park-like backyard. It’s basically your own nature show, minus the subscription fee.
What You Get:
2 bedrooms + living room (sleeps 6,bring friends, or don’t )
3 comfy beds and cozy linens
Smart TVs in every room ,Netflix marathon? Yes, please.
Vanity station with a 42-inch lighted LED mirror (because good lighting is everything)
Private paved garden entrance- We built this just for you! It winds from our front door to yours!
Private patio with seating , perfect for coffee, cocktails, or deer-watching
Fully stocked kitchenette with mini fridge, microwave, Keurig, Electric Kettle, bottled water + a stocked coffee/tea bar*** Please note there is no kitchen sink or stove- but with all the great restaurants in town, we are sure you won’t miss it!
Driveway Parking- You have the left side of our double driveway- Fits 2 cars comfortably.
Ultraviolet (UV) germicidal light- long story short, our furnace has a hospital grade germ killer to keep us all safe!
No cleaning fee ever, we like to keep it simple
Bonus Points: Our two sweet dogs might pop by outside to say hi (they are professional treat testers).
Perfect Location: Under 2 miles to everything Miami University and Uptown Oxford has to offer. Dining, shops, nightlife, coffee spots, and more. Walk, bike, or hit the nearby OATS trail for a morning stroll. Under 8 miles to Hueston Woods State Park.
Why You’ll Love It: It’s private, peaceful, spacious, and full of little touches to make your stay special. You’ll leave with more photos of deer than you planned (and probably a soft spot for our pups).
Whether you’re visiting Miami University, exploring Uptown, or simply craving a cozy escape surrounded by nature, this little haven has everything you need to relax, recharge, and feel completely at ease.

We had a great experience staying here. I highly recommend this home away from home. The owner was great with communication and the coffee bar and snacks/water bottles were wonderful perks to our stay.

It was clean, decorated fun , comfortable beds, quiet. Kids loved the hot chocolate and popcorn that was there. Would recommend to friends!
What a beautiful home! The host was responsive and made sure everything was perfect for our stay. Ideal for parents visiting their students at Miami. Great location just a mile from Uptown Oxford. We will definitely be staying again!
We had a wonderful Mom’s weekend stay! The rental is located in a quiet neighborhood. The host communicated well before and during our stay, even offering up reminders about where the umbrellas were located and ideas for activities. Everything was clean and comfortable. We wouldn’t hesitate to rent this property again.

Thank you so much!! We look forward to hosting you again!
Our stay was delightful! We needed a place for a one night stay during a hockey tournament. This rental was perfect! The owners were very communicative and friendly. The place felt very homey with lots of nice touches! It was even decorated for Christmas.
